A member asked:

Hi, if one 25 mg benadryl (diphenhydramine) pill isn't working can i take 2 at 31 weeks?

Dr. John Chiu answered

OK: At 31 weeks , all of the fetal organs have formed and thus it should be ok for you to take the Benadryl (diphenhydramine) 50 mg dose. Just beware that this may make you very drowsy.
